The flat, firm ride is real. Also, if you prefer subtle style, this ain't it. The orange demands attention. So, think about your personal style and comfort needs before chasing this grail from the Jordan series. To wrap it up: This isn't just another Jordan 1. It's an event on your feet. The story, the color... everything works. It has its flaws—what shoe doesn't?—but the cultural weight is huge. Try them on if you can. See if that bold orange speaks to you. For my collection? Absolutely a keeper. Thanks for watching—let me know your thoughts on the Shattered Backboards down below! Is it worth the resale? That's the real question. As a retail grab, absolutely. For current prices? That's personal. The craftmanship on this Jordan 1 is top-tier, making it a grail for many. But there are great colorways for less. Weigh your love for the story (and that orange!) against your budget. Here’s a real pro: the story & the colors are iconic. The "Shattered Backboard" theme from MJ's exhibition game? Legendary. That connection adds so much value beyond just a sneaker. However, the cons? The price – hovering around $400-$500 USD in the resale market – is steep. Also, the creasing on the toe box is inevitable. Just embrace it!
